 	is now initialized to zero.

1999-01-31  James Theiler <[e-mail]>
	* gauss.c added a new function gsl_ran_ugaussian_tail() which
	provides random numbers out on the tail of a gaussian.  I also
	added (but then #ifdef'd out) a second implementation of ordinary
	gaussian numbers.  This second implementation passes the tests
	okay, but it is a touch slower on my home Pentium.
	* gsl_randist.h added prototypes
	* test.c added tests for new gaussian tail function; also altered
	testMoment's ugaussian range (-1,1) value from .68 to a more
	accurate value.
	* ../doc/random.texi further updated 
	
1999-01-30  James Theiler <[e-mail]>
	* discrete.c added implementation of Walker's algorithm for
	rapidly choosing a random integer k where the k's are distributed
	by a user-supplied array of probabilities P[k].  This includes
	functions gsl_ran_discrete(), gsl_ran_discrete_preproc(), 
	gsl_ran_discrete_free(), and gsl_ran_discrete_pdf().
	* gsl_randist.h added definition of structure gsl_ran_discrete_t,
	also prototypes of new functions defined in discrete.c
	* test.c added tests for gsl_ran_discrete(), also
	* test.c made some essentially cosmetic changes:
	1/ redefined FUNC and FUNC2 macros so now output looks like 
	"test gsl_ran_poisson" instead of "gsl_ran_test_poisson"
	2/ changed names of toplevel tests, eg test_moments->testMoments, 
	test_pdf->testPDF, etc, to distinguish them from all the individual 
	functions test_poisson, test_binomial, etc.
	hope that's ok.
	* ../doc/random.texi updated to reflect the new discrete functions,
	as well as the new implementations of the sphere.c routines.

1999-01-28  James Theiler <[e-mail]>
	* sphere.c modified gsl_ran_dir_3d, to speed it up about 2x
	also modified gsl_ran_dir_2d, providing alternative algorithms 
	(#ifdef'd appropriately).  which is faster is machine dependent.
	also gsl_ran_dir_nd for n-dimensional direction, using
	gaussian random variables, normalized to the unit sphere
	also added ref's to Knuth and others describing the algorithms	
	* gsl_randist.h added gsl_ran_dir_nd() prototype
	* gsl-randist.c added dir-nd option

Mon Aug 17 14:31:55 1998  Brian Gough  <[e-mail]>

	* pareto.c: allow scale parameter, mu

	* exppow.c: handle the case a<1 using a transformation of the
 	gamma distribution.

	* gamma.c (gsl_ran_gamma_int): removed the check for
 	GSL_LOGINIFINITY since underflow can't occur for 32-bit random
 	numbers in double precision.

 	gsl_ran_laplace

1998-07-26  Mark Galassi  <[e-mail]>

	* Makefile.am (INCLUDES): added -I$(top_srcdir), since gsl_math.h
	is needed, and that is in the top level source directory.  This is
	necessary for using a separate build directory.

	* nbinomial.c: added Negative Binomial distribution

	* bernoulli.c: added Bernoulli distribution

	* poisson.c (gsl_ran_poisson): fixed a serious bug in the unrolled

 	possible branches!!!

	* erlang.c (gsl_ran_erlang_pdf): renamed mu to a for consistency

Thu Jul  2 15:47:05 1998  Brian Gough  <[e-mail]>

 	logistic.c pareto.c geometric.c erlang.c chisq.c weibull.c,
	although they aren't finished yet

Wed Jul  1 11:56:06 1998  Brian Gough  <[e-mail]>

	* replace do { u = gsl_rng_uniform(r) } while (u == 0) by a direct
 	call to gsl_rng_uniform_pos.

Sun Apr 19 19:06:59 1998  Brian Gough  <[e-mail]>

	* made the 'gsl-dist' programs just output a single column of
 	their random numbers (previously some of the programs printed both
 	the uniform variate and the transformed number)

	* got rid of the 'bench-' programs. We will have a full testing
 	suite soon.

	* renamed the installed programs from 'dist' to 'gsl-dist' so that
 	they don't overwrite anything, e.g. it's possible the user might
 	have other programs called 'gauss' or 'gamma' installed in
 	/usr/local

Sat Mar 21 16:09:16 1998  Brian Gough  <[e-mail]>

	* laplace.c (gsl_ran_laplace): added a Laplace distribution

1998-01-30  Mark Galassi  <[e-mail]>

	* Makefile.am (lib_LIBRARIES): now it creates libgslrandist.a so
	that we have gaussian and poisson distributions.
